SUMMARY: On the first day of Giftmas, my True Love gave to me...not a Partridge in a Pear Tree, but fine jewelry & a jewelry tree! Today is the second day of Giftmas when my True Love will hopefully give to me: Two Turtledoves...of Love! In this episode, we present two holiday gifts inspired by this longtime symbol of loyalty and love: a charming pair of Swarovski crystal turtledoves, and a luxury walking safari in Malawi, Africa to observe turtledoves in their natural environment.
